I’d love to summarize this super-easy system here for you and show you some of the basics. So when I found Ryder Carroll’s bullet journal system (BUJO for short), I immediately fell in love. ![]() If tasks are not on a to-do list, they simply won’t get done. How did the Quakeman get his axe? Maybe he just took it.I’ve always loved journaling and I can’t count how many notebooks I have spread all over the house. I like the notion of having supplies dropped here and there, initially meant for early expeditions, which did not carry out exactly as intended, therefore, all sorts of useful survival stuff may be scattered around in random crates. Anyhow, this phenomenon, could be a theme for 'Quake' mapping. If to skip the metaphysical value of such endeavor and assume the western viewpoint, the cargo cults, were purely theatrical we do know where the supplies come from, the tribal men, did not outside of the observation, that the goods, came from the sky, carried by some "iron birds" of sort. They thought - very reasonably, although through a lens of insufficient information - that if they mimick what the western army does, they - the tribal men - will also get supplied, by the gods, in similar fashion. Ever heard of "cargo cults"? The tribal men saw how western army got supplied. Well there would have been a testing phase where they were trying to move a crate of goods and got sent to another dimension (How the Ogres got Grenade Launchers and chainsaws.) Maybe in an tribalistic offering the ogres threw their now useless axes into the slipgate and thats why the quake guy only has access to an axe. Okay suppose the the Slipgate project was initially a military project to move things (equipment/soldiers) from place to place. Not to state, however, that technology, is a problem itself - the technology, is a wonderful space, extending our capability to communicate the only problem arises, when we convince ourselves, that the technological realm, can substitute for organic living.īut hey, since 'Quake', is fantasy, maybe the axe, was handed to the protagonist by some diety? On the contrary: I think it is a caricature, at best. Nevertheless, I do not really think that the computer, the gaming console or any other kind of available digital gaming device, is particularly making us more social or reaching out to other humans, nor that the "multiplayer", is any substitute for organic social relations. It is also worthwhile to note that according to some social theory, the only meaningful things in life, can happen in relation between humans - that is, how we are possibly wired. Life, at least, cannot really be spoiled, because it is unique to anyone capable of experiencing it, individually. I mean, your primary hardware, is your brain - thanks to that piece of hardware, you can partake in the biggest game of all: life. In my opinion, digital games, were meant to embody the pure joy of tech doing something fun and extraordinary - particularly in the field of interactive, immersive environments the natural continuation of which, is virtual reality - but now, since we have become used to this "extraordinary" condition as well as with the phenomenon of digital games itself, turned into an obnoxious industry what quality, are they going to offer, in order to convince us, that these games, are still any worthwhile time and energy investment? The old John Carmack 'story in a Porn movie' thing I guess. ![]()
